Shoulder-Length Hair: 20 Styles That Make Me Want to Cut My Long Locks

I’ve always had long hair. It’s what I know, it’s what I’m used to, and it’s what I like. And then all of a sudden I see these celebrities rocking these amazing shoulder-length styles, and I am literally itching to chop off my length. I love how bouncy these styles are and how they frame the face so beautifully. What’s nice about these shoulder length cuts is you can still style them. They’re not so short that ponytails or side braids are out of the question. So much can still be done with the length, and it would still look gorgeous with loose waves, so what have I got to lose?

This is my round up of all those celebs that are making me second guess my long locks. What do you think about the new trend? Are you hesitant to take the plunge?!

I love how edgy this look is. Her locks have been curled but the ends straightened. Absolutely love this look!

Charlize Theron 7 of 20

See, we wouldn't need to chop it ALL off. Charlize's hair is still fairly long, but it's just short enough that the hair has volume and bounce.

Julianne makes having shorter hair look so fun! If you've seen some of her recent styles, she's always doing something amazing with her short locks. Just goes to prove that you don't need long hair to create fabulous updos.

Katharine McPhee looks absolutely stunning here. Her length is framing her face so beautifully, and I'm loving the deep side swept bangs.

Halle Berry 15 of 20

We recognize Halle Berry with a short pixie cut, but I love these longer layers on her. It's a very elegant look, and because the hair is shorter, it's not being weighed down and has a really pretty bounce and volume to it.

Tyra Banks 16 of 20

I love that Tyra has straightened her hair. The center part and lack of bangs look gorgeous on her.

Hayden Panettiere 17 of 20

Hayden's chopped her locks as well! There is just something different about short hair up in a ponytail. It's so fresh looking to me. I always say that messy buns are much cuter when you have shorter hair. You have all these fabulous layers that poke out and give so much dimension!

Katy Perry 18 of 20

Loose waves, this cut looks so pretty on Katy.

I love Lucy Hale. I think I prefer her with her longer length, but this just goes to show that the shoulder length can look great on everyone.
